Hi Jimmy,

Gary Moore was such a talented, soulful electric blues player - how cool that you did an acoustic arrangement of this song! I thoroughly enjoyed it, great job

Very good Jimmy, you have a knack for picking songs for fingerstyle.

I don't know how you turn them around so quickly though, when I learn a new fingerstyle arrangement it could be 2 days, 2 weeks, or 2 months depending on how difficult!

Very expressive rendering! Smooth and airy, I like it! I'm working on a still got the blues arrangement too since a few weeks ago, I was more on the Clapton version in E minor, but the original in A minor definitely sounds great too, nice job!

Thanks Johan! I also LOVE both versions - but the original by Gary Moore is my favourite.

Greetz, Jimmy :-)

Very nice performance/arrangement, Jimmy! I remember this song from one of my Gary Moore CD's from long ago. Really enjoyed your acoustic version.
